Abstract :
Asian dust over Suwon Korea in 2006 and 2007 has been measured with dual wavelengths (532 nm and 1064 nm) polarization lidar. The results of analysis showed that a ratio of particle depolarization ratio between 1064 nm and 532 nm are sensitive to mixing states of the dust and spherical aerosols.
